Jesus called Peter out of the boat to walk on the water with him. Peter took the amazing step out of the boat and demonstrated faith beyond what most of us can imagine. While out there on the water with Jesus, Peter faltered, afraid, yet Jesus reached out his hand to catch him.
It seems hard to compare that story with our acts of faith, but they are really the same thing. The risks may seem incomparable, but in God's eyes they are just alike.
I'm holding onto something I heard last week-ish. "It's actually safer walking on water WITH Him than staying on the boat without Him."
